The guitarist began strurew closer and closer to Rev, I couldn’t get to hirab up the he When I finally stood before him, I couldn’t keep my hands off hiainst hih his chest "I don’t think we’ve gotten to this part yet," Rev murmured into my hair

I pulled back to smile up at hi" Rev ran his thumbs across my cheekbones "You look so, so beautiful"

"Thank you You look pretty handsome yourself"

"You just want to get back to the roadhouse for the beer and cake," Rev challenged with a good-natured srinned "Can you blame me?"

I shook my head "No, we can’t" I pulled out of Rev’s embrace, and we took our appropriate places in front of Fuzz
